Chapter 159: The Man of the Year



Cheng Tangyu held his forehead and pretended to be weak and powerless, "I feel dizzy."

"Then you should go see a doctor."

After Chen Fanglin finished speaking, he picked up Cheng Tangyu and ran straight to the military hospital.

Cheng Tangyu had no choice but to accept the examination. No matter what the doctor asked her, she said she was tired and sometimes short of breath. So in the end, the doctor diagnosed her with overwork. He told her to rest more and eat more nutritious foods. He also prescribed a pound of bones for her to make soup.

Cheng Tangyu didn't expect that she would still get to drink a meal of bone soup. She only regretted that she didn't pretend to be sick earlier. She didn't have to work or take care of the baby these days. Except that the house was a little messy, she felt pretty good.

I don't want to do housework anymore.

After Chen Fanglin returned from the hospital, he began to reflect on himself.

In the past, he had basically never done any housework at home.

Cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, taking care of children...even sending money or mailing things back home for the New Year and other festivals, all are done by the wife alone.

Is this also the reason why my wife collapsed from exhaustion?

He felt very guilty and secretly decided to do his best to help with housework in the future.

That night, Chen Fanglin apologized to his wife, saying that he had been a hands-off boss in the past and had caused her to become exhausted. He said a lot of things and felt very guilty.

The next day, Cheng Tangyu stopped pretending to be sick and got up early to clean the house. Although Chen Fanglin also cleaned the house every day, Cheng Tangyu always felt that the house would be very dirty without her, and every corner felt dirty.

Chen Fanglin got up and saw his wife busy. He was so scared that he quickly asked her to go back to her room to rest. "The doctor told you to rest more. Did you forget?"

"If you get tired again, your body will collapse."

"If your family knew you worked yourself to death, they would think I was abusing you."

"Just take a break and stop working. Wait until I get back from get off work in the evening."

Cheng Tangyu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The big bone from the hospital is really useful. I drank it last night and I feel full of strength today."

"Then it seems that you are malnourished. I will find time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to get you some large bones."

"I'm fine now. You don't need to eat the big bone soup for the time being. You should wash up and have breakfast." Cheng Tangyu didn't want to eat the big bones, but she felt sorry for the money.

Chen Fanglin also knew his wife's character. She was always thinking about their own family and eventually exhausted herself. She was just like the candle written in his childhood composition, burning herself to light up others.

When he went to work today, he asked someone to help him get two large bones. Although Cheng Tangyu felt sorry for the money when she saw the large bones, she felt warm in her heart because her husband finally knew how to care for others.

Speaking of this, I have to thank Su Nuan for her advice.

After she cooked the bone soup, she served a bowl to Su Nuan. After hearing her story, Su Nuan drank it with a sense of righteousness.

After hearing about her successful experience, several military wives who were on good terms with Cheng Tangyu began to follow her example. Suddenly, many military wives fell ill in the family compound.

All the big bones in the military hospital had been opened, and those who didn’t get one could only find a way to get it themselves.

However, not all military wives' husbands have the same awareness as Chen Fanglin. For some women, if they don't work, their husbands will let the work pile up, such as mountains of bowls and clothes. In the end, whoever can't hold on or is not used to it will take the initiative to do the work first.

During this period, Su Nuan received a stamped contract from the newspaper mailed to her, along with three copies of "Children of the Earth".

Su Nuan gave one copy each to Han Fengzhi and Tang Jinhui, and kept the remaining one for herself.

Soon her book began to be sold on the market, and the information center of the family compound has been talking about it recently.

Some people wanted to get a copy to keep, but they failed to get one.

Some people even wanted to ask Su Nuan if she knew anyone at the newspaper who could get a few copies for everyone, but Su Nuan found an excuse to send them away.

As of the winter solstice, Su Nuan's Children of the Earth had sold a total of 20,000 copies.

The newspaper discussed with Su Nuan and printed another 10,000 copies.

Only a few military dependents in the family compound managed to grab a copy.

Soon someone came to the door because they had discovered one thing, that is, Su Nuan was Yue Haitang.

Su Nuan put the book away as soon as she received it, not noticing that the introduction on the first page was "Yue Haitang, real name, Su Nuan, from the Red Flag Brigade of Zhengyang Commune..."

Everyone had suspected before that Su Nuan was Yue Shang Begonia, but after seeing the introduction in print, they were still shocked.

"Comrade Su, you've worked so hard to keep it a secret from us."

"I didn't expect that we actually knew Yue Haitang herself!"

“…”

Su Nuan was surrounded by everyone, and finally it was Grandma Ling and An Qionglan who rescued her.

From then on, Su Nuan would receive things at her doorstep from time to time, mainly letters and snacks, and some people would send Su Nuan vegetables grown in their own homes.

If she knew who sent it, Su Nuan would send it back personally.

But most of them were sent by unknown people, so Su Nuan could only save them and share them with everyone when everyone gathered at the information center to chat on weekends.

Su Nuan has become a prominent figure in the family compound.

Whenever there is a woman in the family, she will be mentioned.

Some people envy her for being able to publish a book at such a young age.

Some people envy her for making a lot of money.
